Title: Different between Bitcoin-QT and Multibit Post by: Quoted1 on November 30, 2013, 05:14:59 PM I have used both Bitcoin-QT and Multibit but I have yet to find a difference other than that of Bitcoin-QT needing to download the entire blockchain before being able to be used.
Is there any other difference or is that it; also why does Bitcoin-QT need to download the block chain first and Multibit doesn't? Title: Re: Different between Bitcoin-QT and Multibit Post by: ajax3592 on November 30, 2013, 05:36:11 PM Because Multibit stores the blockchain in their proxy servers to sync and Bitcoin - QT stores the blockchain on your hard-drive.
Title: Re: Different between Bitcoin-QT and Multibit Post by: yumei on November 30, 2013, 05:37:40 PM I would really recommend you to NOT use Multibit or other Clients then Bitcoin-QT, especially if you are a newbie.
I had experienced some problems with Multibit and Armory, I had to reinstall them and at least reboot the computer once for getting my old wallets being recognized again after I tried to used a second wallet. They simple have to much bugs. Bitcoin-QT seems like being the most stable Client, though it might take some time to download the whole Blockchain. Title: Re: Different between Bitcoin-QT and Multibit Post by: DooMAD on November 30, 2013, 05:40:51 PM I like that it's easy to have separate wallets with Multibit, one for small change, one for spending money, one for long term savings. Feels like a letdown every time I open Litecoin-qt or Namecoin-qt and only have the one, single wallet on screen. I'd happily uninstall all the other clients if there was a Multibit equivalent for the other altcoins I use.
